MISSION PRAYER REQUEST - APRIL 2014

PRAY FOR PERTH

Thank you for all your prayers for us during these months of settling into the work in Perth.

The services have been well attended with approximately 30 in attendance in the morning services. We have been encouraged by faithful band of people who faithfully attend all the Sabbath services and the church prayer meetings. There have been some visitors into the meetings including some unsaved. We pray that the entrance of the Lord’s Word would bring light into darkened hearts.

Prayer requests- Salvation of unsaved that have been in attendance- The bringing of local people into the services and children into the children’s meeting- The raising up of men who will be able to hold office in days to come- New areas of witness for the congregation

EBOLA SPREADS TO LIBERIA

You may have heard on the news of an outbreak of Ebola hemorrhagic fever here in West Africa. It started a couple of weeks ago in Guinea (a country that borders Liberia to the northwest), and upwards of 80 people have died there so far. Sadly, it has now crossed into Liberia, and from a report tonight I heard that there are now 11 confirmed cases here in Liberia. Ebola originates in animals, possibly the fruit bat, and then is spread to people through the eating of contaminated meat. Person to person transmission is possible only through the body fluids of an infected person once he/she begins to show symptoms. There is no known cure for Ebola, and the mortality rate is high at up to 90%.

We would ask for prayer for the following:- that the Lord would give protection for us missionaries and for our church people (who are at a much higher risk than us, due to taking public transportation, living in crowded communities etc).- that the government and health officials would have wisdom in how to deal with and control the outbreak.- that the general public would not panic, but would listen and follow the advice given in order to effectively isolate known cases and prevent further transmission of the disease.- that this situation would be used for the glory of God, and that as people are faced with their own mortality, they would turn to the Lord.
